Setting threashold for fuzzy search results over MultiTerm Termbases

Lukas Ley

Hi,

I am trying to give my language provider plugin access to the termbases. 

The only way I found to access the entries of termabes is via search in a Sdl.MultiTerm.TMO.Interop.Termbase.

After loading the termbase I am initializing a search with

TermbaseSearch search = termbase.Search;
search.MaximumHits = 10;
search.FuzzySearch = true;
search.SourceIndex = someSourceLanguage;

And then I search via

HitTerms oHits = search.Execute();

But I did not find a way to set the threashold for the fuzzy search.
My goal is to find terms that are similar e.g. plural form of a term. But i do not want to get terms that are really different from my search term. At the moment this is the case. I have an entry in a termbase for the german word "Leiden" but it also finds this term when I search for "denn" or "denen". 
Is there an easy way to set the threshold? 

If not, could you recommend something to achieve my goal? I am not set on using the termbase search i can use something else.

Best,

Lukas

    Hello,

    I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you — 100% should be an exact match of the strings (it works for me).

    I access the project settings like this:

    public ProviderSettings ProviderSettings { get; set; }
    private ProjectsController _projectsController = null;
    private ProjectsController ProjectsController => _projectsController ?? (_projectsController = SdlTradosStudio.Application.GetController<ProjectsController>());
    private FileBasedProject GetProject() => ProjectsController.CurrentProject;

    ...
    var currentProject = GetProject();
    var projectInfo = currentProject.GetProjectInfo();

    termbase settings:

    TermbaseService.GetTermbaseConfiguration()
